A/N: Okay, so upon suggestion I have decided that I'm going to go back and explain the events I said in the previous chapter. Basically scratch that and we're going back in time! oooo, spooky, lmao. I don't know how much I'll be able to write for these chapters cause the reason i skipped over them is because I couldn't figure out how to write them, so I'll try, let me know if it's going good or, I should stop or, I should skip ahead to where I was going to start. So remember, this is going back to the beginning, relativly not to long after A Bella Twilight finished. READ ON....
Over the past year I had been spending most of my time at the Cullen's. For some reasons Charlie didn't seem to mind to much and sometimes even let me stay there later than dinner, which was when he would usually call me telling me it was time to go home. Carlisle had warned me that the first few years after someone was changed were usually hard, especially with our diet it got harder not to attack innocent humans. Apparently, I seemed to have a supernatural control over my thirst which allowed me to follow the diet without much hesitation so Carlisle had to tell me what newborns were usually like, considering the fact that I was still technically a newborn.
I went over to the Cullen's and, out of habit, knocked on the door. Alice answered the door and seeing who it was smiled. "Bella, you really need to stop knocking," she sighed.
"Ya, you always say that," I laughed.
"Can't you take the hint, or is it too subtle?" she responded sarcastically and I smiled walking threw the door. Esme was puttering around the house and stopped in front of me.
"Nice to see you Bella, even though you are here...everyday. Not that I'm complaining!" she added quickly seeing how that might sound to some people.
"Nice to see you too," I laughed showing her there were no hard feelings and she nodded understanding.
"Bella!" Emmett called coming down the stairs. I swear walking into this house was like walking in and saying 'I'm home!' I thought to myself. Before I knew it, Emmett was standing next to Esme smiling like an idiot, and Edward had appeared beside me.
"Hi, love," he said pulling me into a hug which I quickly wrapped my arms around him too. "Shut up Emmett," Edward said all of a sudden making everyone look at him funny. "What? Did you all just not hear what he said?" he asked exasperated and we all shock our heads. "Okay, I'm not crazy Alice," He responded to another unspoken comment.
"Edward, you've been like this since you were changed...are all vampires like this?" Alice asked us. Esme shock her head signalling no and I just shrugged not know, hey! I was still technically a newborn.
"Alice dear, Carlisle told you his theory about Edward's power. You're human and you can see the future, you can't say much," Esme pointed out and reminded Alice, at the same time.
"Maybe she can't, but I can. I'm perfectly normal!" Emmett burst out causing us all to be consumed by laughter. "What?" he asked us acting hurt that we were laughing at him.
"It's just, one- you live in a house with vampire parents, two- your sister can see the future, three- your brother might be able to read minds, and four- your extremely big and strong and your like a teddy bear, far from any definition of normal," I explained listing off a few things from the top of my head.
"I can read minds! Unless you can think of another reason I can perfectly tell what anyone is thinking at any given moment," Edward sighed, the only problem with this was that he was unable to control this and couldn't help it.
"Come on Edward, let's go hunting. Your eyes are getting dark," I said ignoring his previous comment. I grabbed his hand and dragged him out the front door and into the forest.
************
After we hunted enough, both of us, we started to wander around the forest. "Bella, you believe me right? About being me being able to read minds? I know Carlisle does, and Esme is pretty sure. Emmett doesn't really know what to think, and Alice seems like she isn't really paying attention," Edward asked breaking the silence that had come over us.
"Really? I didn't know that...can you read mine?" I joked knowing full well that he couldn't, he knew this too.
"Ha ha, you're so funny," Edward responded sarcastically. I decided to see if I could confuse him...
How about know? I asked lifting my shield for only a split second.
"What was that?" Edward asked clearly shocked by what had happened.
"What was what?" I asked playing overly innocent.
"Bella," he sighed in annoyance and I smiled mischievously. He looked at me sceptically as I continued to smile and skip along on my path...that was until a tree branch decided I should meet the ground. I squeaked slightly as I tripped over it but, as usual, Edward caught me before I did any real damage.
After he put me back on my feet and steadied me, chuckling slightly while he did so, he found it funny that I could trip over nothing; I told him "Let's just say, I do believe you, and I'm pretty sure Alice and Emmett do too,"
"You're not the one who can read their minds now are you?" he pointed out and I shrugged not really caring.
"Fine, be pessimistic. They believe you, their probably just confused, they're not vampires now are they?" I reminded him. He rolled his eyes and laughed at my 'logic'.
"Bella, just because they aren't vampires doesn't mean they don't understand. Alice can see the future and she acts like she doesn't believe me and Emmett...is Emmett. He clearly stated he doesn't believe me back at the house," he told me.
"I'm sure Alice believes you, she probably just isn't sure. It's probably a lot to take in the fact her twin brother can read minds," I pointed out.
"Whatever you say," he laughed and I sighed exasperated. Since when was he so stubborn. We had somehow wandered around to our meadow so we decided to sit there and just talk for awhile.
**********
We finally got home. Funny how I wasn't really part of their family yet I had already started to consider their house my home away from home. "Where'd you guys go?" Emmett asked after we walked threw the door. "It's been hours!" he whined.
"I told you where they were five times," Alice sighed in annoyance sinking into the couch in the living room.
"Emmett! We were not doing that!" Edward suddenly burst out. I knew he could read minds and was getting used to it so I let it pass but Emmett and Alice looked at him funny.
"You really can read my mind can't you Eddie?" Emmett finally realized.
"That's what I've been trying to tell you," he sighed. "And don't call me Eddie!" he added. "1901," that time I looked at him funny. "He asked me what number he was thinking from 1 to 1 000 000," Edward defended. "He was thinking 1901,"
"Oh oh, try me!" Alice started bouncing excitedly in a way only Alice could.
"1918," he sighed.
"Wow, you really can read minds! That's actually pretty cool, he he, sorry I didn't believe you before hand," she added sheepishly.
"That is awesome!" Emmett added.
"Finally you two get it," I sighed plopping down on the couch beside Alice.
After we all agreed that Edward really did have the power to read minds we were fine for awhile. We didn't really think the whole mind reading thing could be that much of a burden for Edward. That is until...
A/N: Hehehe, I know I'm evil don't hurt me...please! You know whats going to happen!...Maybe I should take the first chapter down and restart....hmmm, let me know what you think cause i'm starting to think I should...You know, I think I will, ya, just restart entirely, thats how it will work. Anyways, cheak out my new story, it's way different than this one but I think it's okay, still good you know. I was going to wait until I finished this story before I started that story but after my friend heard she was in it she wouldn't let me wait any longer and won't stop bugging me until I put it up so for the sake of my sanity I'm putting it up now. I will still keep up on my updates even though they are already irregular but it will be okay...I hope.
Well, now that I'm done ranting about important nothingness, press the pretty button saying Review, come on...you know you want to! PRETTY PLEASE! They make me want to update faster, I promise.
